parnum is flush with left margin, indent is just enough to allow for
parnum and a little bit. Some examples I have seen do have some space
between paragraphs, but it is not explicitly requested.
the numbering is running, from 0001 to nnnn, last parnum of the
document. Only section headings would not be numbered, and that is easy
to hack in many ways. I'll try the attach,
Thank you!

As to the text formatting, it's supposed to be plain - no bolds, different
sizes, anything - section titles are supposed to be like the rest, merely in
upper case [1] . Interestingly, the one sample provided /does/ show
horizontal lines above and below the section titles... (been looking for the
last 20 minutes and cannot find that one, sorry...)
Thus no problem as to Class, pretty much anything plain page would do.
Maybe Memoir will be the "fix". I've tried Koma, all sorts of plain and
some other assorted (my code was hacked out of hollywood...), but never
Memoir. I'll get into it right now.
You can also do it with standard classes and the titlesec package
(which is not really compatible with memoir). See attached example. If
you have section headings, however, paragraphs numbers will not be
reset for every section. Is that what you need? Resetting counters
can be managed, I think, but off the top of my head I don't remember
how to do it automatically.
BTW, in the attached example, the spacing between the para label and
the main text (which is set in the preamble), should probably be
tweaked to get a natural looking feel. See titlesec's manual for
details.
Your specs are also not very clear about the parindent. Is the number
indented as well or just the paragraph text? At any rate, either
behavior is easy to do with memoir or the titlesec package.
BTW, I see you're Aggie, Stefano, I am located in Austin myself.
Then we're neighbor. I live in Austin too.
